I had some General Grabber AT2's fitted today. The fitter put all the tyres with the white (or blueish) writing put on the outside edge of all corners.

My question is, are the tyres supposed to be fitted as sets? as in are some for off side and others near side?

Because all are fitted with the white writing outwards, some look like they are facing the right way, points forward and others backwards, or does it not matter as they have no correct side...

ALL OPINIONS WELCOME......

Ye might've tried the General section fur this question... but there's still the Discovery, Range Rover, Anything goes, etc to post in as well:rolleyes:;):D
 
The reason I put it in here is that they are on a freelander!

Another question is does anyone know what pressure they should be at. They are 205 75 r15 and are on a freelander td4.

Ahhh, but it is relevant to what section where it goes. Why ask questions about one particullar motor in a different motors section??? Hence the reason why ah said it might've been better in the 'General' section.
It might pay to have a guid look around this site to see what bit does what... mainly the Home page or the bit that says 'forum' (top left beside Gallery and above Donate);)

:5biagree:, posting on several section's just to get a response is a tad silly, as the tyre's whether fitted to a Disco, Defender or a Freelander are all the same aside from size:doh:

And before you noobs have a hissy fit:rolleyes::p, they are not directional tyre's, a small clue might be the tyre's name in white on one side & black on the other:eek:
 
Apart from that all tyres that are directional have an arrow indicating the normal direction of rotation (unless you're Italian) moulded into the side of the tyre.
 
No they aren't directional so can be fitted either way. The reason the writing is white on one side only is so people can choose to have it on show or not. Directional tyres have either an arrow showing rotation direction or have 'Outer' moulded into the outer sidewall.
